69 Dearborn Motor Mounts
« on: July 26, 2011, 10:35:53 AM »
Can someone clarify if both pieces (motor mount and frame mount) of the motor mount were natural, black or other. I have been searching but I am still unclear.

Thanks

The frame mount (both halves) for a 69 Dearborn car is bare metal and the motor mount is normally a combination of black and natural. Mostly they are natural in the area of the ears that have the single bolt hole and black everywhere else. I have seen service motor mounts that were all black.  A lot of times service parts are painted differently because they didn't want finishes to flash rust and look bad when presented to a service replacement buyer where as on the assemblyline it was put on the car and wouldn't normally be seen.

Is this  also true for a May 1970 Dearborn B2?

Are there any paint markings on those? (I have seen some examples with green dabs)

Thanks,
Tony
